HSE Reports

Dear Mr Bradshaw MP

I strongly recommend you contact the HSE for a copy of their ” restricted
reports” on the two downed wind turbines.

The HSE inspector is called Darren Nash and he can be contacted on 0117
9886126 or Darren. nash@hse.gsi.gov.uk

The HSE makes very disconcerting reading.

Doh, no communications set up yet at HSE

Dear Mr Bradshaw

I have just spoken with a representative from the Health and Safety Executive regional office and
requested them to send me a PDF copy of their two recent reports ref the two wind Turbines which collapsed last year. I was informed they were unable to send
me a copy because they have recently moved to a new office; hence, they have no
broadband, emails etc.

Wouldn’t you think they would ensure such vital services are installed before they moved! Further obsufication, no doubt.

Have you requested your reports yet?

Alan M Dransfield



No electronic copies of report sent

Public Inquiry needed into Wind Turbine Collapses

Windfarms Posted on Sun, August 03, 2014 07:17:57

Dear Mr Bradshaw

I believe there is prima facia evidence available to request a public
inquiry into the two collapsed wind Turbines in the South West last year.

There are huge discrepancies between Mr Robert Pearce’s letter dated July
15 2014 to your Exeter Office and the two restricted reports from the HSE
Inspector ref service order 4260329 for the Bradworthy collapse and 4260326 for
the North Cornwall collapse……

Please advise me how I can request a Public Inquiry into the criminal
negligence by the Health and Safety Executive.

Quite frankly , the manner and quality of the two
HSE ” restricted reports” confirms a total lack of knowledge and professionalism by the HSE. The two HSE reports should be sending alarm bells ringing at the Dept of
Energy and the Treasury.

For your information, action and file.

Yours sincerely

Alan M Dransfield

PS

Have you read these two HSE reports yet? If not, why not?



Will Mr Bradshaw MP read the report?

Windfarms Posted on Sun, August 03, 2014 07:15:05

Dear Mr Bradshaw

In the event you can’t or won’t insist on a public Inquiry into the
shennagins at the Health and Safety Executive regarding the wind Turbine debacle, I propose you ask the two
following questions at the next Prime Minister’s Question Time:-

1st Question

Does the Prime Minister think it is right and proper or indeed legal that one of my
constituents in Exeter has been Blacklisted by the Health and Safety Executive, and placed on a lifetime
email ban for raising H&S issues?

2nd question

Is the Minister for Energy satisfied with the role of the HSE regarding wind turbines after the five collapsed wind turbine collapses nationwide last year?

Alan M
Dransfield

PS You will understand question number 2 better after reading the Micky
Mouse reports on the two collapsed WT



Unacceptable

Dear Mr Bradshaw

Further to my earlier email ref the Health and Safety Executive email blacklisting,

I have received another letter from the SW region HQ of the HSE today; Mr
Harvey Wild, their Head f Operations, who insists any correspondence from me
must be by hard copy only and addressed to him only. I find such instructions to
be Draconian. Why should I be cost-impacted for stationary and stamps just to
suit someone running the HSE?

I do not have a problem being limited in restricting my email to Mr Wild, but I do not accept they can dictate my mode of communication in this day and
age. The HSE is 40 years old today and they insist that the General Public must
write letters in hard copy.

Does my MP think it acceptable for the HSE to place me on such bans?

I now have an electronic copy of the 2 ” Restricted reports”; would you
like me to send you a copy?

With thanks

Alan M Dransfield




Why is the local press silent on this?

Attn the Editors
of the Western Morning News and Express and Echo

Dear Sirs

I suggest to
you that the health and safety of the general public in Devon and Cornwall is being compromised by the Health and Safety
Executive ref wind turbine safety.

I suggest
you write to the HSE and obtain a copy of their safety inquiry reports ref

1.Service Order
4260326 ref North Petherwyn WT Collapse

2.Service Order
4260329 Bradworthy

As these are
restricted reports, I am not at liberty to provide copies.

These HSE reports confirm my allegations of serious
malfeasanc .

I believe your
newspapers have a duty of care to disseminate such information.

Yours sincerely

Alan M Dransfield
